Beautiful silver commemorating the loss of those vessels. A reminder of just how bad WW II really was...
That would have been fun to find all of that silver on the bottom of the sea! Nothing like recovered sunken treasure. I've never found any but I still want to go look for some more!

Websites like SSTiawa1942 do put a face rather than a number on the victims of war.
I think drone and robot technology is much more advanced than we think. Every ship lost become fair game to be re-discovered and may be plundered for their lost treasures as we speak.
There may be a literal race to strip mine the wealth of minerals laying in the bottom of the oceans. What could be happening soon would have every ecologist and naturalist lighting their hair on fire demanding the ocean floor be set aside as nature preserves.
I can see that happening.
